A 65-year-old patient sustained massive air embolism after the needle used for left atrial pressure line insertion punctured the posterior wall of the superior pulmonary vein, entering the middle lobe bronchus and causing a pulmonary venous-bronchus fistula. This is an apparently heretofore unrecognized potential cause of massive air embolism following cardiac surgery.
一名65岁患者在插入左心房压力监测线的穿刺针穿透肺上静脉后壁、进入中叶支气管并导致肺静脉-支气管瘘后，发生了大量空气栓塞。这显然是迄今为止未被认识到的心脏手术后大量空气栓塞的潜在原因。
